The Lowdown
G’day, I’m Rusty. Let me tell you straight – the surfing over the next couple of weeks at Hof Maravi is gonna be pretty grim. There’s no good swell on the cards for a long stretch, so we’re looking at flat, choppy, and downright unsurfable conditions for days on end.
Right out of the gate, from Friday the 24th of July right through to about Wednesday the 5th of August, there’s not a single session worth paddling out for. The swell is tiny, mostly around 1 ft to 4 ft, with weak combined wave energy – we’re talking values like 56, 94, even dropping to 8 (weak energy). The wind is almost always cross-onshore or onshore, making everything choppy. Even when the swell tries to bump up a little on Saturday the 25th of July, with 5 ft swell from the WNW and a period of 8 seconds (moderate energy of 287), that moderate cross-onshore wind ruins it. Not a single score hits above 1 out of 10, and that’s for the Monday morning on the 27th of July when there’s a brief cross-offshore NNE breeze at 6 mph with 4 ft swell – but honestly, the waves are ordinary and small.
The water temperature is sitting around 84°F, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year (anomaly of 3°F), but that’s no comfort when there are no waves.
There’s a real gap from the 29th of July onward where the swell drops to barely 1 ft to 2 ft, with periods of just 5 to 7 seconds – weak windswell that won’t even stand up. The combined energy falls into double digits (as low as 11), and it’s just gusty cross-onshore winds or occasional glassy mornings with zero surf. Even the glassy conditions on Tuesday the 28th of July morning (2 ft, 7-second period, 42 energy) and Saturday the 8th of August morning (1 ft, 6-second period, 9 energy) can’t save it because there’s no push.
Honestly, there’s nothing to get excited about. If you were hoping for a standout, there isn’t one. This is a blank run that looks like it’s going to drag on for over two weeks. For a beach/jetty setup like Hof Maravi, that’s just how it goes sometimes. The only thing that’s consistent here is the poor conditions. This stretch looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing, if you ask me.
Stay patient, mate. The forecasts can change, but right now, leave the board at home.
Rusty.

Information about the Hof Maravi Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Hof Maravi provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Hof Maravi can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Hof Maravi surf forecast is unique since it includes wave energy (power) that defines the real feel of the surf rather than just the height or the period. If you surf the same spot (Hof Maravi) regularly then make a mental note of the wave energy from the surf forecast table each time you go. Very soon you may start to choose your surf days based on the wave energy alone combined with our forecast of favourable offshore wind conditions. Our star ratings will help here and of course you will also find the usual wave height and period predictions on our surf forecasts as well as a full break down of the swell components under our advanced users option (to reveal that, click the little Einstein character under the tide times).
Further information to help with frequently asked questions about our surf forecast for Hof Maravi may be found under the help tab on the top menu and also by moving your mouse over the question marks on the surf forecast table itself. Please always bear in mind that the forecast is for near-shore open water and local factors at each surf break influence the actual breaking wave height, such as the beach / reef profile, water depths offshore and shelter.
Hof Maravi is 1 km (1 miles) from Ashdod. If you plan a holiday in Tel Aviv and South, look for hotels and other accommodation in Ashdod. Ashdod has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
